Post by: Carl on May 11, 2004, 02:16:34 am: yeah, just to be ironic. then we can all look back at it and laugh.

Post by: Fineus on May 11, 2004, 02:55:16 am: Heh, then there can be even more irony as the US shouts about how it saved the world.. did everyone a favour.. did the right thing etc.

..by doing exactly the same thing as the terrorists.

Still, funny story :nod:

If it were true, they (the family) would have flushed the bad guy from his hole and turned him over a long long time ago already just to really clear their name and reputation...

Post by: Rictor on May 11, 2004, 12:19:35 pm: The bin Ladens are about as close to Osama as the ****es are to the bin Ladens. Dubya isn't about to go after his favourite business partners, and the bin Ladens aren't about to go after their flesh and blood. If Dubya wanted anything from the bin Ladens, he really shouldn't have flown them out of the country post-haste after 9/11. But, you know....

and if they have no connections, how the **** are they going to know where the **** he is?

Post by: Flipside on May 11, 2004, 12:50:04 pm: Is the lack of connection through moral choice or political expediency I wonder? And what is this sudden need to put 'Islamic' about any job done for Muslims? I've built a computer for an Indian friend of mine, that doesn't make it a Seikh computer ffs!

Post by: Zuljin on May 11, 2004, 01:05:27 pm: If it was any other company than the bin ladens, then this wouldn't be given half as much attention.
Just because they are building what will be the tallest skyscraper in the world, and because it reminds some people of the WTC.
That doesn't mean there is a connection between the two.

Thats so funny! You should be on a tv show as the most moronic person to roam this earth.

Yeah lets commit mass murder and then joke later! I mean why not be as bad as the bad guys right?

And this is why the world is so fubared.

Im glad the Bin Ladens can get on with their life regardless of what their relative(s) are doing. Just because we know one evil bin laden, doesnt mean they are all evil bin ladens.

If you think all bin ladens are evil then its time to see a psychiatrist.

You're not very bright are you?

I think you hit the nail on the head with that one.

Post by: Black Wolf on May 11, 2004, 09:43:46 pm: After all - think of the Platypus.

I wonder...most skyscrapers these days are built to be able to take an aeroplane impact right? I wonder what this'll be rated for...(The Twin towers could have shrugged off a 707 impact for example, they just weren't designed for anything as big as what hit them)
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: IceFire on May 11, 2004, 10:16:22 pm: Is the 767 really that much more massive than a 707?

And I thought it was designed to handle small dual seater crashes without issue. Not airliners...
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: Rictor on May 11, 2004, 10:19:19 pm: AFAIK, the WTCs were design to withstand the impact of a 737, though whether they actually would have is disputable.

Post by: Sandwich on May 12, 2004, 11:11:07 am: I think it would actually and truly be amusing if a couple of thousand people threw paper airplanes at the towers. Sort of a way of killing your enemy with love or something.... hmm, ok, maybe not, but whatever. :p
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: mikhael on May 12, 2004, 11:13:01 am: Now that's pretty funny. :D
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: diamondgeezer on May 12, 2004, 12:17:14 pm: Well, maybe you could fly, like, a glider or something in to it. Just to make a point, without actually killing anyone. And have it pulling a banner saying 'my other ride's a 747'
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: Flipside on May 12, 2004, 12:24:04 pm: :lol:

I think that may not be a good idea ;)

I like the paper airplanes thing though, that'd be funny to watch :D

Post by: Taristin on May 12, 2004, 03:34:32 pm: Meh. Are you kidding? A few years back, a kid crashed a piper cub or sumat into a bank Tower in Tampa, FL, and everyone thought he was doing it because of his 'sympathy for Bin Laden.' So even if it were funny, the gov't'd turn it around and make you a terrorist. :nod:

So paper planes it is.
Title: ...and they say God doesn't have a sense of humour.
Post by: Sandwich on May 12, 2004, 04:27:36 pm: ...Maybe paper planes with little red paint capsules in their noses? :nervous:

Post by: Flipside on May 12, 2004, 04:40:02 pm: hehehe Or buttercups sellotaped to them?

LOL It could be a good old fashioned 1960 Bin-Love-in ;)
